Running SMIL Applications

For this course there are basically three ways to run SMIL applications (two use the a Java Applet) so there are basically two SMIL supported mediums:

Quicktime

-- supported since Quicktime Version 4.0.

RealPlayer G2

-- integrated SMIL support

Web Browser

-- use the SOJA SMIL applet viewer with html wrapper

Applet Viewer

-- use the SOJA SMIL applet viewer with html wrapper

You will need to use both as RealPlayer and SOJA support different media (see below and Section 4.4.3).
